Marcus Paige eager to take the reins for North Carolina basketball
Posted Jun 18, 2011
Marcus Paige, a rising senior from Linn-Mar High in Marion, Iowa, appears set to be the point guard of the future for the Tar Heels. He said the NBA success of Raymond Felton and Ty Lawson makes North Carolina more appealing but isn't the main reason he was interested in the Tar Heels. "They also were able to win national championships," Paige said. "I'm really big on winning. I love to win, hate to lose."
